Alternator Bracket SBC Short Water Pump Black

The Alternator Bracket SBC Short Water Pump Black is a driver-side, high-mount alternator bracket engineered for small block Chevy engines running short water pump configurations. Designed for serious enthusiasts and professional builders, this bracket positions the alternator for optimal belt routing and clearance in tight engine bays while accommodating GM 10SI, 12SI, and CS130 series alternators. Whether you're restoring a classic Chevrolet or building a performance engine, this bracket solves the compatibility challenge of matching modern alternators to vintage small block Chevy platforms.

Manufactured by TUFF-STUFF and finished in durable black powder coat, this steel bracket resists corrosion and maintains its appearance under underhood conditions. The high-mount design reduces interference with accessory belts and engine components, while the water pump mount configuration ensures the bracket integrates seamlessly with short water pump setups common in SBC applications. The steel construction provides the strength needed to support alternator weight and vibration across extended driving cycles.

This bracket is ideal for engine builders, restoration shops, and enthusiasts upgrading small block Chevy charging systems with later-model alternators. Installation requires basic mechanical skill and works with vehicles using short water pump water distribution—a common setup in many classic Chevy builds and crate engine kits. The complete kit delivers everything needed for proper mounting, making it a straightforward solution for alternator relocation without custom fabrication or welding modifications.
